Join us Dec 14 at 8pm for Compline Sung Prayer, in the ancient traditional Latin form. Compline (from the word for “completion”), the last liturgy of prayers of the day, has been prayed in monasteries since the 6th century.
Church of the Resurrection
1514 E Michigan Ave, Lansing, MI
Under musical director David Stattelman, the Schola approaches chanting Compline from the medieval style and perspective, that is, a fluid style with strong emphasis on conveying the meaning of the text and often with the addition vocal drones. The result is an experience listeners describe as “ethereal” and “contemplative”.
What to expect: The church will be darkened. There will be print-outs at the entrances you may use as a guide; this will have both the Latin and English. You may follow along with the guide or simply sit and listen. People of any faith are welcome to attend.
